the proposal 10 trans fer funds to bail out the sad shape of the maintenance and operations departments. Schuler said that it just does not ma ke g ood bus iness sense to cul spending on a business that is gro-.iog as fast as NIC. "It's Ukc cutting the baclc off of the f1151esr groW1Dg industry io the state," be said. " It's like any growing industry." Schuler said. " As it grows, expansions are made . more money is invested and the industr')' continues to gro-. and be a successful business ven ture. "Growing industries wo uld never think of culling budget s and h ave hopes of continued growth." The president said that North Idaho scem.s to always have this type of problem with the legislature. "It's the snme old thing;· Schuler said. " Out of sighi --o ut of mind." Through it all, Schuler said that he is very o pumistic about the future of NK. He said that there is legislation on the floor now that could effectively bail NIC out of its current problems. Be saJcl that It loob like the 2-cents sales tu increll.SC or some fonn of sales w increase wi11 probably be passe d and that higher educa tion would reap the benefits from this. He said that this, coupled with the fact that NlC students will probably see another tuition increase for the fall · of 1983, would put NIC out of trouble for some time. Schuler said that there are certain types of tu loopholes that are conent· ly bemg discussed by the legislature llat could produce " mega·bucks" for the Sl&tC budget. One of lbue tu loopholes is corporauon e1emp1io05 from paying saJn w on tools 11nd equipment used in the trade, Schuler uid. The president uid 1ha1 this and taXI.Dg services. such as anomey's a~d doctor'\ fees. would put the state in good shape and have a very posnivc efICC'I on higher education allocations. So far, the cuts alneedy made have not bun the coflege beyond repair. and no instructors have been laid off, though some par1, 1ime ins tructors h3\·e h3d their hoors cut. he noted .
College students tired of high school-like treatment Most students continue their education b) encering rollegc. Some hope to escape the bothersome antics of "'kiddie·· high school and enroll in courses that are less 11me-consum1ng and more beneficial for them. These students ore supposedly mature adults who can choo:.e thetr career and plan their ~tudy habits all by themsehes. But are the~· being treated like it? No! Student, at ~IC are not onl) being told how to act. smell and feel. but they ore alw being informed b\' uncaring instructors that the; are nor permitted to mis\ an, class of theirs or their grade" ill be lowered acrording to a set percentage •

A matter of taste In the last town that I lived. it was considered a cultural experience when the bartender furnished the pool ubles "';th ne"' chalk. Now that might not be your idea of attending the premiere of "Annie" on Broadway. but it beat the pants off of watching people use the new money mochine 01 the bank. Oh , every once in n while we would mosey on down to the elevator and watch 'cm unload grain trucks, but there really wasn't much in town 10 tantalize the cultural taste buds. l o a selling like that. it doesn't surprise you "'hen the gentleman next to you interrupts your conversauon ""ith a left jab or an enlightening statement like "I don ·1 like your face." You learn to lh•e with it for o while. The stupid comments. the rude interruptions, the overall neglect for others' feelings were forgotten in the rime that it took Wayne, the beer man. to change the keg at the Oh Boy We're Having A Good Time Now Tavern. After a few yeJUS or this. frying a cheeseburger was getting to be an artistic success, and about the time that I thought I was doomed to endure this enlightening lifestyle. I was lured away to the refined atmosphere that I am a pan of now. Little by little. word by word, lesson by lesson I have been onempring to shed the feeling of se\'erc sensory deprivation caused by the past few years. I was given another opponunitv to feed that loss with the recent Festivention ·83 that happened on our campus two weeks ago. I think major gains were made somewhere in the inner depths of this battered brain because the wheels staned turning in a way chat they hadn't turned in a long time. I started to appreciate an an that I knew no more about at the time than some people know about common counesy. You probably know the people I'm talking about. They·re the ones who keep a running dialogue going du.ring a play. walk in and out through keynote addresses and stroll through the speaking area, e,•en if it is a gym, in \•arious states of athletic undress. Now maJ·be these sons of things upset me because J"ve been exposed to the ultimate in crass conduct. But either way I'd like to let anyone who doesn"t think they need the little bit of culture that rolls our wa,· now and then know about a great little town I've spent some u.ite in. And if you C\•er ger more than r grnin trucks in one day, call and let me know.
This unwiu~, threat chnllengcs the integrity of n hnrd-working student Who care if he mis e an occnsional class. a,; long ns he does his wo;k nnd unden.tnnds \\ hnt he i doing? There nrc many college clnsses on campus nnd ncross the nation that ma ke no :1ttcndance demands from n student who is diligently trying to educate himself. As long a. his assignments aro turned in nod he does good work. the student is not pent11izcd in nn) wny. lo\,cring a studcnt"s grade just bccnuse he has missed a classes is idiotic.

- - - - - -----.(__m_o____~_e _o-=-p_in_io_n_ J Waiting for 21 no fun This is an issue even Daniel Webster would have trouble with. The currem debate in the Idaho Legislature to raise the legal drinking age from 19 to 21 in the state of Idaho comes down 10 a question of definition-11. hat is the difference between a right and a privilege? Are the state legislators the right ones 10 decide this question? If so. why would drinking alcohol fall under a different Clltegory than the right (or is it pri,·ilege?l of getting married, paying ta."Ccs or fighting in a war 10 defend the country? Drinking alcohol can be a dangerous obsession. But what of war? Isn't that a little dangerous also? In either cose. the consequences c:in be harmful and long-lasting. So isn't al1011.ing 18- and 19-year-olds to panictp:ue in one action and not the other discriminaton·? ln the cas·e of dnnkmg alcohol, danger can be avoided b)' using moderation. But is there such a thing as a moderate war? The solution could be to steer away from the question of which is a right and which is a pri.,iJege and attack the problem (which in chis case appenrs to be mostly on drunken driving). Individuals under the age of 21 are neither the sole nor the majority offenders of drunken driving, and disallowing them the right (or is that pri,·ilege?) to drink alcohol wiU not stop the problem. People will continue to drink whether it is legal for them to do so or not. And keeping them out of the bars \\'Ould force them to go elsewhere 10 drink their beers and :ilcohol. maybe to their cars. driving around. Stiffer drinking regulations (brcathalizcrs in bars) and enforcement of the existing drunken driving laws would be a better solution, along with stiffer penalties by the couns te,'led on offenders. The late John F Kennedy once s11id America '"will not be fully free until its c1tiLcns nre free." If Americans are allowed to assume the other responsibilities of an adult when the,· tum 18. let's :illow them a privilege also.

And then I staned to feel a bit of anxiety gn11wing at m) stomach. "'Ho11. much is this going to cost?" I wondered.

Move to change Idaho drinking age irritates reader Dear Editor: This year members of the Idaho State Legislature are once again trying to raise the legal drinking age to 21. It 1s my opinion Lhat this would be a serious violation of the rights of Idaho cilizens. Should this legislation pass. many under the age of21 who work. at bars. restaurants or other places that sell booze could lose their jobs.
Wouldn't that be nice in this age of unemployment? When a person turns 18. he is considered an adult. He has been paying some form of taxes. if not income ta.1es, at least sales tax for a number of years. He is old enough to marry v.;thout parental consent and often lives somewhere other than with his pareni.s. Perhaps most importantly, an 18-year-
old is old enough lO be drafted and die for his country. Now. I ask you. shouldn't he be allowed to make his 0"''11 decision on whether or not lO drink? I urge all of you who want to save your right to buy alcoholic bever· ages to write your state legislators as soon as possible to eipress your concern. lf yoo don't want to 11oTite yourself, cut out this a.rticle and
mail it to your senator and repre· sentauves. The address: Legislator's name State Senate /or House of Reps. Sratebouse Boise. Jd. 83702 Sincerely. Wally Lempctt

[__c_r_sp_o_rt_s____J Area boxer KOs death by Wanda S~pbens Jeff Hall was doomed to life as a vegeuable aher a death experience in 1980: 1oday he studi es pre- med a1 North Idaho College. The IIIllllteur Golden Glove boxer was ranked fourth in the nation and first in the Northwest in 1977. He bier moved wtth his famil y to Ho u~to n where he began preparing for 1he Olympic trials. Jdf wu on Im way to a victory i.n Corpus Christi, Texas, on May 9, 1980. when he received a powerful blow LO the head lhat threw him down on the hard canvas. Thb fight was over, bu1 for Jeff. the hardest had juSt begun. Two days later. Jeff arrived at lhc hospital emergency room near dealh. suffering from a massive cere bral hemorrhage which he believes may have started a week before lhe light. "I was s parring wilh a heavyweight 10 prepare for the fight ... Jeff sold. " bu1 he got rough when I sta rted doing well and I suffered amnesill for three days." Jeff was immedlat ely taken 10 surgery. During the opentio n, he suffered two convulsions thul shook him off the table and he died. Electric ~hock treatments and a tracheotomy revived him. bul doctors in Galveston thought he had been dead too long. "They lold my mother that I would be o vegetable for the re~• of my life.'' Jeff said. " and to take me 10 :1 nul'!,ing home un1II I died. " Jeff actually died long enough to experien ce so methin g that bu af. fected hi) life greatly. " All I can remember Is 1ha1 there were loving 5pirl1s oil around me," Jeff said. " Th111 love ls still with me." He wu nll cd with II love for everyone and 11n Inner ~1reng1h thM ha) brought him down n long rond to recovery.
''11,e most special pel'IOn in my life is my mother." Jeff sa.id. "She bas been so dedicated along "'ith my brother Miclcey, v,,ho also helped s:ive my hfc."
Mickey Hall was a llllturopat.h v,,ho CTcated a "green goo" blend of raw live r and various. vegetables and vitamins that saved Jeffs life wheo he had begun to deteriorate. Jeff endured four major head surge ries and suffe:red from kidney infections, kidney s tones. phlebitis. a ruptu red appcndll and sii agonizing months of tot.a.I paralysis. All be could move were his eyes, but his mot.her said 1ha1 he has never complained about the pain. ''One thing lhal was frustr11ring," Jeff said, "was that I could bear. see and k.now what was going on, but nobody knew." II was a chiropr acto r, Dr. Greg While, who brought him ou1 of the pa ralysis and inspired him to erucr the medical field. " I like to help people and make them feel good." he said.

Unbeaten wrestlers host Mt. Hood, Clackamas by Bruce Mullen
The NIC wrestling team is currently ranked second Ill the nation by the NJCAA. riding a SJ dual march victory streak and featuring a line-up t~t includes th ree sophomore All-Americans and an undefeated freshman from Sandpoin1. Those numbers are good enough to impress most people. except the man most responsible for producing 1hem--head coach John Owen.

" We ha,•e lO just worry abou1 oursel"es, on hov.· we can improve and then hope we can go to the na11onal 1ourney and perform well enough to win it." Earlier In the season, Owen said that the hardest pan about defending a national championship is "coming lO grips with the fact that you are no longer national champion and developi ng your own identity." That bla1tme n1 comes from cipcrience. After winning the national title in 1978. the Cards s tumbled and wound up 20th the following year. This year could be another s tory though and here is why·

b.1 BIISII Fram Changes in the requirements for degrees offered by NIC ha ..-e been given the ftnnl npprovnl by President Barry Schuler and "ill be put into cffec1 staniag next fall. according to Owen Cargo!, director of planning. NIC will contin ut- to offer the associate of arts, associate of scienC't'. a.nd associate of liberal ans degrees. bu·, the requirements -.;11 be different. T he associate of applied science degree has not beeo changed. All three degrees have some common changes. including the reduction of the PE requirement to two credits. At least one credit must be in PE 131. Other common changes include a requirement of four credits in speech, two of which must be in speech 131. The other two credits att elective and ma 1· be chosen from 3 vnricr,· of new classes offered. Cargo! said. They include cl:isses on improving liStening skills, argumentation, interviewing techniques and nooverbal communiotion. For the A.S. degree, three credits of math ,.;n be required. The choices are Math 140 or Math I 15 plus any math course numbered 1-W or higher. Cargo! said that a t\l1H"redi1 compu· ter class will also be required. Stu· dents may choose between lncroductioa to Computers, Foman or Intro· ducrion to D:itn Processing. Students \\ill also bc required to
take three ~ t s of either Philosoph) 120 or any math or computer science course numbered 200 or higher. For the A.L.A. degree, the three· credit Philosophy 120 course "-ill be required. lo addition. eight credits of foreign language and Math I IS will be required. A one-credit class ctll.led NIC Survey will be offered as a pilot das.s in the fall of 19S4. The course ..-111 teach such things as library and study skills, career explor· atioa, computer literacy and professional preparation. Cargo! said that the course is needed because it te3ches \'aluable skills that many students do not already have.
If the c:lass works oot. it will be added to the A.S. degree requirements i:n the fall of 1985. At the same time, the A.A. and A.l.A. degrees \\ill be combined into a oe"' A.A. degree. The new degTee \\'ill keep the requirements of the old A.LA. but "'ill be called the A.A. degree. The:;e changes are all pan of the new six-year !lflC Loog-Range Plan. Cargo! said that Students enrolling next foll must follow the nC\\ degree requirements, but that currently enrolled students havc a choice between the new and old requirements.

Maggot Mel high moment of vacation, • writer says by Craig Johnson
With buds and a schedule in each fist, students are clamoring bad from the holiday break. A~er buying books from the booksrore. book swaps. 11.11d bulletins; after d ropping and adding classes in a maddening frenzy, pushing the patience of the advisers to the point whe re they have ryped suicide notes on their foreheads and are threaleoing t.o drink a case of liquid paper. the student.s find they ~ve just enough time to grab a cup of tha t new-found elirir (coffee). find their buddies somewhere in the SUB and discuss the haps of the semester break. I am no different. I mut admit, however, that I prefer my coffee unadulte rated. That is to say, three pans sugar and four parts cream 10 one pan Folgers does not a cup of coffee make. And Styrofoam is dcftnitely out. Any containe r that holds boiled hquids hot enough to lake the hair off of a cow's hide and that I cannot safely place between my legs while driving. I wi ll po..ss over in favor of the more s ubstantial ceramic mug. I may be old-fashioned. but I'm partial to my hair wherever it may be located, and I'm told. it is generally in.advisable to rapidly raise the temperature of certarn specific body parts. I'm not one to argue. But while in the SUB, do as Subbers do. I always say. So, while I wa.s tenderly sipping coffee from a Styrofoam cu p, making sure my legs remained crossed at all times.
